<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong><em>Florida has long been a hotbed for high school football talent. Florida annually produces some of the nation's top running back prospects. Florida athletes are known for their speed, agility, or raw athleticism, these running backs have made a name for themselves and caught the attention of coaches and scouts at the collegiate level.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong><em>These players are all talented and have college level ability. Some of these players have a few offers, but all of them have the ability to play college football at some level.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong><em>There are some big-time highly rated prospects and several sleeper prospects that should all be getting looks for the next level. This list is full of stud prospects.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong><em>Prep Redzone Florida will always promote every player in hopes of them getting the opportunity of playing college football at&nbsp;the next level.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>1. Vontavius Keller – Choctawhatchee High</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Height/Weight: 5'8", 200 lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stats: 271 carries, 1,774 yards, 21 TDs; 9 catches, 79 yards, 1 TD</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Analysis: Keller is a workhorse back with the ability to carry a heavy load and remain productive. His compact frame and 200-pound build allows him to run through contact and wear down defenses. His vision and balance are clear apparent on film.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>2. Damien Grant – Archbishop McCarthy High</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Height/Weight: 5'7", 168 lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stats: 126 carries, 814 yards, 1 TD; 1 catch, 8 yards</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Analysis: Grant is a quick and shifty runner who thrives in space. While he lacks the size to be a traditional high carry back, his agility and burst&nbsp;make him effective in zone schemes and perimeter runs.&nbsp;</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>3.

His high motor and foot speed give him upside as a prospect.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>5. Hezekiah Davis – Jesuit High</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Height/Weight: 5'10", 170 lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stats: 59 carries, 475 yards, 1 TD; 6 catches, 55 yards</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Analysis: Davis has a solid build and shows flashes of explosiveness with his opportunities.&nbsp; His yards-per-carry suggest efficiency and a knack for finding space; his frame and potential make him an intriguing option for further evaluation.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>6. Marvelous Jackson – Southeast High</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Height/Weight: 5'9", 180 lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stats: 94 carries, 412 yards, 3 TDs; 1 catch, 60 yards</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Analysis: Jackson has a lot of potential. At 180&nbsp;pounds, he has a sturdy build and flashes playmaking ability. He's got solid athleticism and can really make big plays when he gets the chance. He is a promising prospect with the potential to develop into a well-rounded running back.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>7. Jamare Eugene – Brandon High</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Height/Weight: N/A</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stats: 90 carries, 396 yards, 3 TDs; 3 catches, 20 yards</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Analysis:&nbsp; Eugene is a steady back who displays good vision and patience.
